    I need to clean up some comments in the code. The other thing that I
    want to do is to introduce read_seqlock/read_sequnlock() primitives that
    do the locking without incrementing the sequence number. Then all the
    name lookup and translation code can use the new primitives as they
    don't change any of the protected structures. This will prevent one
    sequence number check failure from cascading into a series of failures
    because of the sequence number change. I will have a patch ready by
    tomorrow morning.

    Regards,
    Longman
